Soon, Li Jingxuan brought the wine up.
He glanced at Lu Zheng, and his desire to insult Lu Zheng intensified.
Because Lu Zheng didn't turn around to look at him.
This is interesting; it seems Lu Zheng has lowered his guard.
The rest is entirely up to him.
In fact, Lu Zheng and Ming Xiang were still waiting for Ming Xiang's parents to expose this secret.
If it were anyone else, Lu Zheng and his team wouldn't have given them this opportunity.
But these are Mingxiang's biological parents. If they really don't care about this, Lu Zheng's attitude towards them will turn completely cold in the future.
After all, for the sake of so-called family reputation, he was willing to sacrifice his own daughter. No matter who he was, Lu Zheng would not show him any mercy.
Ironically, the two of them felt they had done nothing wrong.
They even showed a hint of excitement.
Even Mingxiang was utterly disappointed.
These are her parents!
When she left her hometown and was abandoned by the entire village, she never blamed them.
Because dropping out of school was her own choice, her parents didn't understand because their thinking was limited.
But at this moment, neither she nor her husband cared about her dignity, which caused Mingxiang's feelings for them to change drastically.
Of course, you can't afford to break off relations before the wine is poured.
"Ahem, this is fine wine, aged in 1983, 300,000 a bottle. I'm happy today, so I specially asked for it."
Three hundred thousand? 1983 vintage?
Heh... Keep pretending.
These bottles were all pre-ordered; how could the wine be pure brew?
Although Lu Zheng didn't like drinking, he had still managed to secure quite a few business deals for Jiang Li'er.
In addition, Lu Zheng is extremely intelligent, and even his wine tasting is unique.
No matter how long the wine has been stored, or how meticulous the details are, he can tell the difference between genuine and fake wine at a glance.
At first, Lu Zheng didn't intend to expose him.
However, Lu Zheng found it hard to tolerate Li Jingxuan's treatment of people as fools.
So Lu Zheng swirled the wine in his glass: "Is it really a 1983 vintage? Or is it still under two years old?"
When Lu Zheng asked that question, Li Jingxuan's lips twitched violently.
This wine hasn't been around for very long.
The price is just over ten thousand.
Although it is indeed much more expensive than ordinary wine, for people like them, ten thousand yuan is not much different from one yuan.
He used this kind of wine to disguise himself, thinking that a country bumpkin like Lu Zheng wouldn't be able to tell the difference.
But to his utter surprise, Lu Zheng saw right through him at a glance.
But upon closer reflection, he sneered inwardly.
The craftsmanship of this bottle is so exquisite that even he couldn't recognize it. How could Lu Zheng possibly tell the difference? He must be joking or deliberately showing off, and accidentally stumbled upon this point.
Thinking of this, Li Jingxuan, who had almost lost his composure, quickly composed himself and laughed, "How could that be? Look, Lu Zheng, you're joking. It's not that bad. Would our family be short of money?"
As he spoke, he asked the manager next to him to open the lid.
The manager was also one of Li Jingxuan's men, so he naturally knew which side of the wine was laced with a sedative and which side was the normal wine.
She then personally came over and poured wine for Ming Xiang and Lu Zheng, saying with a smile, "Young Master Li Jingxuan has gone to great lengths for today's banquet. This wine is truly excellent."
As she spoke, she went over and poured drinks for Li Jingxuan, Li Gu, and Ming Xiang's parents.
This manager must have done this before; he spun the bottle very smoothly.
Moreover, it seems that her state of mind hasn't changed much.
Doing this kind of thing often makes your heart race.
Unless it's not her first time doing it.
After the wine was poured, Li Gu stood up and said with a smile, "After today, we'll all be friends. We'll settle the matter from before in one go."
"By the way, Lu Zheng, I heard your AI robot is selling like hotcakes. How can something like that work without the support of the internet? How about this, after today, let's cooperate, and I'll advertise for you."
That sounds so real.
However, when he raised his glass this time, neither Lu Zheng nor Ming Xiang raised their glasses.
Li Gu felt a little awkward after he finished speaking.
Even the manager coughed: "Mr. Lu?"
Only after being called upon by the manager did Lu Zheng speak up: "Let's put the cooperation aside for now. I have something to discuss right now, is that alright?"
Li Gu was stunned. He had just reached a high point in his emotions when Lu Zheng suddenly said something that caught him off guard.
The medicine in this wine is very potent; as long as Lu Zheng and the others drink this cup, they'll be fine.
Li Jingxuan was also waiting to take Mingxiang to the hotel.
But then Lu Zheng suddenly blurted out this...
However, Li Gu was an old fox after all, and he smiled slightly: "Alright, it's okay, good things come to those who wait, go ahead and tell me."
Lu Zheng took his wine glass and Ming Xiang's wine glass, stood up and walked up to the manager, smiling as he said, "Manager, we don't know much about wine, please don't mind us. You can drink these two glasses."
Red wine has a very low alcohol content.
Even if you drink both of these glasses together, you won't get drunk easily.
It didn't even reach the level of being slightly tipsy.
But this wine has been spiked with potent ingredients.
If he were to gulp down two glasses at once, the manager would be knocked out instantly.
Furthermore, anyone with a sound mind would know that Lu Zheng's actions indicated he had doubts about the alcohol.
Upon seeing Lu Zheng's expression, the manager quickly waved his hand, saying, "This...this won't do."
"Are you looking down on us?" Lu Zheng asked with a smile.
"No... I..." The manager quickly turned his pleading gaze to Li Gu and his son.
Before either of them could speak, Mingxiang's father stood up first: "Lu Zheng, what are you doing? Everything was fine just now, are you going to make things difficult for us again?"
Seeing Mingxiang's father like this, Lu Zheng didn't hold back either.
"It's alright if she doesn't drink. This glass of wine is for Mingxiang. As Mingxiang's father, you should drink it. You wouldn't look down on your own daughter, would you?"
"you……"
Mingxiang's father's lips twitched violently.
But Lu Zheng had already finished speaking in a tone that didn't need to be denied, and then handed the wine glass to Ming Xiang's father: "Drink up?"
"Lu Zheng!"
Snap!
Li Jingxuan slammed his hand on the table: "We kindly invited you, and you, Lu Zheng, are you trying to embarrass us?"
Lu Zheng sneered: "Is that so? Kindness? The bottle you're using is called a Mandarin Duck Bottle. This kind of bottle has two spouts, and the mechanism is at the bottom of the glass bottle. To pour two different kinds of wine, you need to switch the positions of the bottle spouts and open the mechanism below. Do you think I don't know that?"
